Genital Herpes Pain Relief

Genital herpes pain relief is usually present especially when blisters start forming and during the first episodes. Surprisingly there are not many medicines or products which focus on herpes pain. Most of them concentrate more on killing the virus than easing the pain. But I know a few products or techniques that can bring a much needed pain relief at the right time. None of them work for a 100% people so you may have to try a few remedies before you find sufficient relief. But you will. I'll also mention common natural genital herpes treatments that may bring genital herpes relief and remedy at the same time. If you feel pain in your nerves or muscles in between herpes infection episodes, that means that you suffer from post herpetic neuralgia. It is not the main purpose of this page. But I will add a page about relief for genital herpes pain between infections. Because there are exciting things happening in that domain.

The best way to use essential oils is to create your own blend according to your symptoms and your situation. Many essential oils are herpes antiviral agents. I've created one essential oil ointment that could either stop or cure herpes outbreaks very quickly (less than 3 days) and relieve the pain and debilitating itching that come with herpes infections.

Lemon balm essential oil effect on herpes has been studied and demonstrated in Germany. It can prevent further herpes outbreaks, limit genital herpes outbreak severity and duration. Many people with herpes also consider tea tree oil to be very helpful. I can confirm that from personal experience. I feel that Tea tree oil becomes at least 3 times more efficient when combined with another essential oil I know of.

You should use essential oils for genital herpes pain relief. It is simple and it works. A good and reliable source of essential oils is Mountain Rose Herbs.

If you want to get rid of herpes pain, the best way to achieve that is to to prevent herpes outbreaksr.

I've achieved this by using the information in the book called Herpes Wise. If you want to get rid of herpes pain, I strongly suggest you read it.

Genital Herpes Pain Relief: MSM gel

MSM gel is a little bit like organic silica gel. It can be used to relieve herpes pain and itching and to speed the healing or genital herpes sores and prevent the appearance of scars. You want to look for the purest possible MSM gel. Many MSM gels are not made to be applied on sores or minor cuts. Many are joint pain relief or anti-wrinkle gels mixed with other products. So make sure you have the right gel. MSM is the cousin of DMSO. Genital herpes and DMSO is an entirely other subject. It has been suggested as a treatment and a potential cure for herpes. But DMSO isn't soothing at all and MSM is much safer than DMSO. MSM is also a much better Genital herpes pain relief solution.
A good MSM gel is TriMedica MSM Lotion with Sulfur. It contains 15% of MSM, rosemary, saponaria, camomile and other herbal extracts. Saponaria or soap wort has anti-itching properties, camomile has soothing, anti-herpetic and wound-healing properties and rosemary is a very powerful antioxidant.

Lidocaine is an anesthetic that has been suggested as a genital herpes pain relief drug. It is a medicine designed for local pain relief. When applied on the skin it can relieve genital herpes pain and itching. But it doesn't treat herpes at all. It is also used for herpes zoster or shingles. The very serious International Herpes Management Forum has published an article stating that lidocaine gel didn't add any extra pain relief to oral herpes when combined with 5% zovirax cream. That's why I didn't mention it in the cold sore section of this web site. That doesn't mean lidocaine gel alone is not interesting. Actually, many people find good genital herpes pain relief with lidocaine gel. As zovirax effectiveness is not proven for genital herpes, I feel lidocaine gel is a very interesting genital herpes pain relief option. Lidocaine gel numbs the area where it's applied by stopping the nerve endings located on the skin from transmitting information to the brain. In other words it suppresses our natural pain signals like any other pain killers. So if you're in your first year of genital herpes or you have many severe recurrences, give lidocaine gel a try. It can definitely make those dreadful herpes outbreak episodes a little less painful. But lidocaine as any other drug has side-effects. So read recommendations very carefully.
